A comparison with K line, X-ray and other data, of 10830 A equivalent widths (EW) measurements in 890 image tube spectra of 455 stars shows that for the case of G stars, the EW correlates well with K line intensity. Good correlation is also found between 10830 A EW and soft X-ray fluxes, confirming the excitation of the line by coronal soft X-rays, which can serve as a measure of coronal emission. It is also found that, in contradiction to published models, 10830 A is weak or absent in O, B and A stars, and is absent in F and M supergiants. Moderate to high 10830 A EW is frequent in F and M dwarfs, G and K supergiants, and class K3 III. The 58 stars whose 10830 A EW was found to be of 300 A or more should be relatively intense X-ray emitters. Almost all RS CVn stars show strong 10830 A absorption, and T Tauri stars show both absorption and emission.
